About the Winery
Domaine Andre Aubert

Domaine André Aubert, has been formed over decades and today comprises of more than 280 hectares spread from north to south of the prestigious Southern Rhone Valley on the appellations Côtes du Rhône, Côtes du Rhône villages, Visan, and Grignan-les-Adhémar.

This has a nicely generous, spicy peppery and toasty nose with classic licorice and slightly candied black cherry/plummy fruit. Syrah is taking the lead here. Nicely robust flavour intensity on the palate as well with all that spice repeating. It is medium bodied, juicy and fresh with mild, slightly gritty tannin and earthiness on the finish. Some alcohol warmth at !5%. But it is not out of balance. Very good to excellent length. Tasted August 2020.

About the Winery
Maison Idiart
Maison Idiart is a wine négociant based in Bordeaux and established in 2013. Nicolas Idiart, winemaker and founder of Maison Idiart, grew up with a passion for wine, something that he shared with his father and grandfather.
He graduated from Bordeaux winemaking school in Blanquefort at 19 years old. Nicolas' love for Loire wines took him to work in Chinon, Touraine and Muscadet. He also had experiences in Australia and New Zealand. After several years travelling the world, he decided to shift his work in the industry and work in sales, focusing in North America.
At 33 years old, after 7 years working in sales, he decided to go back to winemaking with an artisan approach, making small batches of handcrafted wines.

About the Winery
Mas Carlot
Mas Carlot is situated in the south of the Rhône Valley, extending across 76 hectares of pebbly land southeast of Nîmes. Originally a 17th century farm, this beautiful estate was resurrected in the 1960's by the Blanc family—it is currently run Cyril Mares of the neighbouring and equally reputable property, Mas Bressades.
The appellation of Costières de Nîmes used to be considered part of eastern Languedoc but the climate, soil, topography and wine are far closer to those just over the river in the Southern Côtes du Rhône. It is now a region very much on the up and is widely recognized as a great source of excellent value wine.

This is a tidy and tasty rose from an appellation on the western flank of the Rhone River as it empties into the Mediterranean. The nose is soft and pure with pretty pink grapefruit, strawberry and gentle herbs. It is medium boded, fairly warm, cushy yet dry, with an herbal finish. The length is very good to excellent. Solid. Tasted August 2020.
